Raspi 4: Is there a way of checking correct cpu consumption

novalis · July 26, 2019 at 11:56 AM

or is it just normal?

With the hot weather at the moment Kodi is idleing around 75 to 80 degrees. And over 80 degrees when being in use.

When I start top via ssh it sometimes shows kodi.bin with 318% cpu consumption.

This is obviously wrong.

What's behind that and how can it be analyzed?

You can run perf top and check kodi debug log to get some more detailed info. Such high CPU load is definitely not normal - most of the time that's caused by some misbehaving/broken addon.

can you see something here?

Can you post kodi debug log as well? perf top shows some hefty xml prcessing going on - could be pvr/xmltv addon for example.

There is actually only one error msg 3 times/s saying

2019-07-26 16:20:07.242 T:2663801712 ERROR: CCurlFile::Open failed with code 0 for http://192.168.0.91:80/web/currenttime:

2019-07-26 16:20:20.789 T:2663801712 ERROR: CCurlFile::FillBuffer - Failed: Couldn't connect to server(7)

where 192.168.0.91 is my pvr

hmm

Try disabling the pvr client addon, reboot and check if you still have high CPU usage.

Can't recommend anything else ATM without seeing your full debug log.

so long,
